Drivers side window rolled down and will not go back up. The window is all the way down now but when I push the switch down, I still hear a click but when I push the switch up, I hear nothing. I read a lot online and I am thinking it could be a broken wire. I do not know anything about wiring or how to fix that stuff. I looked at the wire diagram and it said the blue wire is the up wire from the motor and took the door panel off and unplugged the blue wire and it looked corroded or burnt. All I really want is to get the window back in the up position and I would be a happy camper. I read about maybe "jumping" the wire, but I do not know how to do that? Can someone please help me?! I is starting to get cold and rainy and I cannot have this window all the way down anymore. :(

I bet the problem is that the motor's brushes are stuck. Have someone hold the switch in the up position while you slam the door. Often times that will break the brushes loose and then the motor will work for a while.

If that does not do it, then you will have to pull the motor out in order to move that window up.
